Title: Did anyone else buy Contact?
Post by: schild on October 24, 2006, 06:14:00 AM
(http://www.toysnjoys.com/importds/contact.jpg)

Comeon! Get with it people! It's from Suda51 (He made Killer 7 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XEKX7nnMqbE)! He's making Heroes (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LrOqfQ1UWw8)!)! It's for the DS!

Anyway, it's about a little 8-bit scientist using a little 16-bit kid through you to help him get to... somewhere. Whatever, I'm not about to ruin the story. The localization is from Atlus and it's positively stellar.

Ok, seriously though, if anyone bought it, can we do the wi-fi connect friend code bullshit thing? (still, officially, the worst idea ever.) Also, I wouldn't mind talking about the game. Tons of hidden shit. Tons of silly little things (fishing for treasure maps prease). Also, intentional engrish! And it's funny!

Anyway, my friend key is: 4295 7875 5937

I've had absolutely no luck in finding this game - I was kinda looking forward to it. :(

MisterNoisy - you should try going to a store and not looking under the couch. Game is sorta everywhere.

I tried to yesterday but my closest Fry's was sold out of it (it's on sale till today) so I picked up Phoenix Wright (yeah!) and SMR (boo!) instead. I'm going to go to the flagship store tonight and try to get it or get a raincheck for it.

That's the thing - I've tried everywhere - even Wal-Mart (ugh), but all the local shops are sold out or don't have any in stock.

Newegg to the rescue, I spose.

I have it.  I just can't get the DS to myself.  The wife is all over Lost in Blue, if you can believe that shit.  But then, she is without Sims at the moment.  More later.

I started last night.  This game is awesome.  Everyone needs to buy it.

The Fry's's in my area are still sold out, but now I'm busy playing PSU so it's not a high priority.

'splain.  Will my 10 year old son like it?  He's currently playing Tales of the Abyss (after Tales of Symphonia).

Or how about my almost 8yo daughter?

Or is this a game for me?  How do you play with other people?

Game is too smart for children, imo.

The parts of it I really like are not things a ten-year-old would get.  I'm not far into it, sadly, but you would know what I meant if you saw the load screen.
